The playoff race is heating up! After a fiery start in front of their home fans, Numia Vero Volley Milano is ready to hit the road for Game 2 of the Scudetto Semifinals. The match is set to take place this Sunday, March 30 at 8:30 PM CET, at Palazzo Wanny in Florence, where Milano will go head-to-head with Savino Del Bene Scandicci.

In the opener, Milano delivered a clean 3-0 sweep, bouncing back from a shaky start thanks to the unstoppable Paola Egonu, who racked up 23 points and earned MVP honors. Backed by a sold-out Allianz Cloud crowd, Milano found their rhythm and never looked back, wrapping up the match in just 90 minutes.

Now, the challenge shifts to Scandicci’s home turf. The two sides are well-acquainted—this will be their fifth clash of the season, and it’s shaping up to be another thrilling chapter in a growing rivalry. The semifinal series is played in a best-of-five format, and Sunday’s result could either be a major step forward for one team or reset the series to square one for the other.

Coach Lavarini’s Thoughts:
“Game 1 is behind us. It’s a fresh start again in Game 2. Scandicci will definitely come out strong at home, and we’re preparing to respond with consistency and intensity. In a series this tight, the most consistent team will come out on top.”
